We found Hummer’s Meats online and decided to give them a try. They are not a big store but their selection and prices are very good.
We specifically went for Chicken. Their pledge for locally sourced, No Anti-biotics or growth hormones is what attracted us.
They also have a wide selection of beef and pork products as well as locally cured bacon, ham and sausages.
There beef selection is extensive. They also custom butcher sides and quarters of beef.
The store was was busy when we arrived. All the employees had a smile on their face and were eager to help.
We purchased a fryer, 2lbs of Boneless thighs along with 2lbs of wings for Super Bowl weekend.
On the way out we decided to try their own deep fried Chicken tenders. They were delicious and perfectly cooked. They came with a Bar-B-Que side but, they didn’t need it!
There’s plenty of parking and an easy drive to My Joy from Lancaster. Well worth the trip.
Will go...

I've also seen utensils that were being used to spoon chip dips into plastic containers left lying on the dirty cardboard box that the bulk dip came in. Who knows if the worker came back and started using the scoop again without washing it. Double yuck !! If these aren't health code violations,...
